Hims & Hers Privacy Lawsuit Explained | Portland Maine News
Description
Utah, California, and the FTC are suing Hims & Hers for allegedly selling your private health data—like info on hair loss, anxiety, and ED—to ad giants like Meta and Snap, despite promising a “100% private” telehealth experience. The lawsuit claims they used tracking tools to monitor your behavior and funnel sensitive info to advertisers, turning free consultations into subscription traps. Utah’s AG warns this breaks trust, especially with health data. The states want to stop the practice, refund customers, and penalize the company—Hims & Hers denies wrongdoing. If you’re affected, report it to Utah’s consumer protection division. Always check your privacy settings—your data matters.
